  1. Not only did @Ursula win the round, she completely dominated! I'm still lol'ing...
  2. You better tear that place up man!! Safe travels and look forward to hearing all about it!
  3. Great update @RoryQ! Sounds like you had a blast ;) I had very similar experiences in regards to my tattoos - kids/young people & older peeps where cool and middle age where mostly indifferent. I should say most elderly people, as going to and from Nara i had a couple of occasions when I had older gentlemen just starring and they didn't seem happy about it. At all. Probably the only time I have ever felt slightly uncomfortable in Japan. The ladies at the Ukiyo-e Museum in Osaka LOVED my tattoos and we had a really good talk about tattoos and ukiyo-e. (Thankfully I had a Japanese friend to help translate) Also in Osaka there is a suburb called Ameri-murra (america town) where all the kids get dressed up on Sunday, hang out and hang with the cool kids. I saw the highest concentration of visible tattoos on Japanese peeps here. Nothing to big, but a lot of one spots and more fashionable type tattoos. I did see a guy walking around Kyoto pretty covered, but to be honest I wasn't sure if he was Japanese, he looked Thai... I know what you mean about taking photos inside studios and not feeling right in posting them. I took a bunch the first time I went to Cat Claw of nothing in particular just the shop and thought nothing of it. My friend mentioned to me outside after i got my Hannya that he didn't take many photos while I was getting tattooed because there was a sign there saying "please don't take photos". Lol, thanks for telling me now! Either way, Rory, it sounds like you had a kick ass time (as you should!) and glad you made it home safe. I can't wait to get back there and I bet you can't either!! :D
  4. @slayer9019 - ^^ I don't see what's wrong with it? Its one of the best tape worms I've seen! lmao nice find ;)
  5. @Johnny - ah, say no more my good man! Preservation of said marriage sounds like the way to go, so hopefully someone from your area will see this thread and be able to give you a heads up on where you should be heading. Good luck my friend, and welcome again.
  6. @Johnny - Hey man welcome to the forum. Unfortunately I can't give recommendations for artists in your area, but what I would suggest is finding the artist you want, the idea of the tattoo you want, get the two together in the same room, AND THEN figure out what the budget will be ;) Wait until you have the money for what you want, from whom you want it and the end result will be a lot better. Utilise the board as a really good reference for quality images and amazing tattooers and your first tattoo is going to kick some ass!
  7. @RoryQ - cheers mate, I'll get pics up of the second session shortly when I'm not on a friends computer. Hope your enjoying Kyoto as much as I do bro! @jayessebee - Nice! that looks like it would have been fun ;) @jade1955 - those tattoos are truly excellent, but those waffles... damn!
  8. I wasn't going to post these until it was completed, but I thought "fuck it, why not" and now you guys can see how the cover up progresses :cool: These are the best photos I could get after the first day in Kyoto (6hrs) I still have to get photos of the second day, which completed all the background on the upper arm. Everything is now nearly healed so I'll get some new ones soonish. Apologies for the dodgy photography but I'm pretty sure I was still vibrating haha
  9. @RoryQ excellent to hear my good man! Glad your having a good time and everything is working out. Be sure to keep us updated ;) how hot is it there at the moment?
  10. Awesome as always Ron, love your work. Any plans of doing a bit more of a world tour? (i.e Australia haha)
  11. Lloyd: The first time I set eyes on Mary Swanson, I just got that old fashioned romantic feeling where I'd do anything to bone her. Harry: That's a special feeling, Lloyd.
  12. Everyone, I got dibs on getting the reverse merman with the trident on the left. Some of the best flash I've seen in years ;)
  13. Forgot about this crew - my mate Ben works there and is really starting to come into his own, cheers MindblownTattoo :cool:
  14. @ShawnPorter first - congratulations! second - I can only like comments once or I'd still be 'liking' the above... gold.

    Seinfeld

    Haha I grew up on Seinfeld... it may explain a few things now I think about it...
  16. I wasn't sure where to put this: Dear Katy Perry, I heard your song “Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)” recently and I felt compelled to write you and share my analysis. Lyrically, it’s basically just an attempt to piece together a crazy night of drinking on the morning after. But let’s take a closer look! “Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)” There’s a stranger in my bed Uh oh! Already scary. You should know everyone in your bed with you. Rape is already a possibility, unprotected sex has almost definitely occurred. There’s a pounding in my head You have overindulged in alcohol and maybe drugs. Drink a lot of water and take some Advil. Be prepared for your whole day to suck a lot. Glitter all over the room Pink flamingos in the pool Have you been partying with John Waters? You may REALLY not like what you find out about last night. It may be best just to “let it go.” I smell like a minibar What do those smell like? I’ve never even opened one because I know the hotel will totally rip you off. I forgot; you’re a multi-millionaire, because of songs like these. DJ’s passed out in the yard You should fire him. He mixed business with pleasure. Very unprofessional. Barbie’s on the barbeque Lazy lyric, somewhat funny image. Did she melt? Do you have pictures? Oh wait, were there children present? Is this a hicky or a bruise? Hold up! There’s a huge difference. Also, in the video for this song, the hicky’s on your neck. Did the aforementioned “stranger” punch you in the neck while raping you?

    Seinfeld

    ^^ thats awesome. Yesterday caught the end of the Mannequin episode - LOVE when Kramer is using it to break up with the waitress in Jerrys car pretending its Elaine! But this then reminded me of the TV Guide episode when the designer of 'The Elaine' first comes into the show. (Kramer trying to get those gyros haha) they're all so good!
